How to install Ruffle with cpanel server side

Ruffle is a Flash Player emulator written in Rust.

Download the latest version from:
https://ruffle.rs/#releases

Step 1 − Open cPanel MIME Types by clicking on MIME Types in Advanced Section of cPanel.

Step 2 − In Create A MIME Type interface, Enter your MIME type.
Attachment 687

Step 3
Add this line to your .htaccess file.

Code:

AddType application/wasm .wasm

Step 4
Unzip the files from the zipped folder you downloaded from https://ruffle.rs/#releases.
The newest today is ruffle_nightly_2021_02_03_selfhosted.zip
Rename that folder ruffle
Upload the ruffle folder to your servers root directory.

Step 5
Add this to the top of the game page code.

Code:

<script src="./ruffle/ruffle.js"></script>

html5 game mod ibproarcade v1.1 will already have step 5 included.

I don't have CPanel but do have root access, can I just do this at server level on Apache?

Apache doesn't serve these files correctly by default, you will need to add this to your httpd.conf configuration file and reload it:

Code:

AddType application/wasm .wasm

More info here:
AddType Directive

OK I added to httpd.conf. Should I edit .htaccess as above? Also I don't see a .js file just one called ruffle. Should I put it in VB root. or root of server ie /root ? Thx. Sorry for so many questions.

you download this and extract the ruffle folder to the root of your website

You do not need to make the .htaccess edit, if you have done the httpd.conf one.

The newest is ruffle_nightly_2021_02_09_selfhosted.zip
Rename ruffle_nightly_2021_02_09_selfhosted to just ruffle

Up load it to your root.

public_html/ruffle

Just like your arcade should be:
public_html/arcade

Hello it's Hunter1985 from vb.org. I'm not sure if this is the way to get faster contact with you. But my Ibproarcade isn't quite working and I don't use cPanel and not sure if I need to change the MIME Type settings from OVH.

You need to ask your host about setting the MIME type.

Well I cannot guarantee OVH will explain things properly or help much, but I'll ask them.

Where exactly do I need to post that code? I've tried putting it in the arcade.php file, but it results in an error. The actual games are in *.swf format, and when I try to edit those, it's all gibberish. So where should it go? ETA Nevermind, I tried the other link: <script src="https://unpkg.com/@ruffle-rs/ruffle"></script> at the top of the arcade.php file and it works now. :)
